Trump Was Furious With His Aides After Melania Was Caught Watching CNN

President Trump reportedly became quite angry when he discovered Melania was watching CNN aboard Air Force One.

President Donald Trump’s near constant disparagement of the American press is not simply for show.

According to a recent New York Times report, Trump became furious during his trip abroad with Melania when he discovered she had been watching CNN on Air Force One.

He raged at his staff for violating a rule that the White House entourage should begin each trip tuned to Fox – his preferred network over what he considers the “fake news” CNN – and caused “a bit of a stir” aboard Air Force One, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.

The email, an internal exchange between officials in the White House Military Office and the White House Communications Agency last Thursday, also called for the ordering of two additional televisions to support Beam, a TiVo-like streaming device, to make sure the president and first lady could both watch TV in their separate hotel rooms when they travel.

At the end of the email chain, officials confirmed that tuning the TVs to Fox would be standard operating procedure going forward.
